Give Them a Chance.

That IS to say, your lungs. Also al
your breathing machinery. Very won
dertul machinery it is. Not only the
larger airpasSages, but the thousands
of little tubes and cavities leading from
4hem.
When these are clogged and choked
with matter which ought not to be
there, your lungs cannot half do THEN
work. And what they do, they cannot
do well.
Call it cold, cough, Group, pneumonia
catarrh, consumption or any Of the
family Of throat and nose and head and
lung obstructIonS, all are bad. All
ought to bc got rid Of. There is lust
one sure way to get rid of them. That
is to take Boschec's German Syrup
which any druggist will sell you at -
cents a bottle. Even if everything else
has failed you, you may depend upon
this for certain.
The McEnery crowd derouncing the
evils of fraud and trickery in political
affairs is just too awfully cheeky for
anything. A set of political sharpers,
who have reduced political juggIery to
a fine art, who have lived and fattened
by it, they now warn the dear people of
its evil effects because there is a
probability that some of their own pet
tricks are to be used against them. It
is a pity thatJu Iscariot did not live
long enough to write a lecture on the
sin Of trcachery. 1t would make a good
companion piece for some of the hyster-
ical articles that have recently appeared
in the administration Journals Natchi-
toches Review.

Roses In the Garden

Like nearly all other plants, roses de-
light in a deep, rich, well-drained land.
When bed of hybrid perpetual roses is
to be planted the soil should be dug to a
depth of at least one foot, and well
mixed with a coating of two or three
inches of rotten COW manure. In the
absence of that, SOW bone dust on the
surface, just enough to cover it, and
mix to the depth of one foot with the
soil. If hybrid perpetual roses are to be
set out in a permanent bed, plant from
eighteen to twenty inches each way; if
hybrid teas plant from fourteen to six
teen inches, and if monthlies or teas
about twelve inches. The hybrid per
petual and tea roses require to be
pruned, like any other hardy shrub.
Cut the young wood any time after the
leaves have dropped, back to two or five
eyes, regulating it according to the
strength of the shoot, the weaker shoots
being cut to two or three eyes, the
stronger to four or five, shaping the
bush so as to get it in good form. The
monthly or tea roses require but little
pruning, except to thin out the blind"
or old wood, or topping by pinching out
the center of any shoot that is growing
too luxuIiantly, SO as to keep the plant
in good shape..-American agricultural

4 fatal maTady is among the horse
